Chez Peachy: Grill Pan by Swiss Diamond Highly Recommended by Whom You Know

When Peachy Deegan isn't wearing diamonds, she is cooking with them! Actually, you can do both at the same time and that is what we recommend. All of the city dwellers in Manhattan have little space for a backyard and a cookout, and even if they do, it is getting a bit nippy for that, so we suggest bringing it to the burner! We love the grill pan: the large (28x28cm) shallow grill has deep and wide ridges prevent food contact from grease and fats below for healthier cooking. Just in time for the 2011 holiday season, Swiss Diamond cookware presents a new and even better coating than the original launched a decade ago – a worldwide unique and patented non-stick coating reinforced with real diamond crystals. The new Swiss Diamond cookware is on every food lover’s holiday wish list or everyday gift list for that matter.  We think ANY day is a great day to give or receive diamonds of all natures and this kind is SO practical!

Welcome to the next generation of non-stick cookware from Swiss Diamond. After four years of research and development, the company’s engineers in their HORT Coating Center in Switzerland have considerably improved the legendary diamond reinforced coating for the entire line of non-stick cookware. It was used for the first time with the new Swiss Diamond HD PRO Stainless steel collection which launched February 2011 at Ambiente in Frankfurt.

This holiday season, the complete Swiss Diamond cookware collection will be produced in HD quality. This new “HD” Coating formulation makes for superior cooking including searing, braising, and sautéing with easy and effortless clean-up. It will not peel, crack or blister. It is also safe for use with metal utensils. The nonstick coating contains no PFOA, is dishwasher safe and will keep its non-stick properties for a lifetime.

Swiss Gourmet USA, based in Charlotte, NC, handles all Swiss Diamond business exclusively in the USA, Canada and South America.


“We have taken pride in the development of the new non-stick coating,” states Amir Alon, CEO and owner of Swiss Diamond International GmbH. “Our engineers outdid themselves because it was difficult to improve our non-stick coating even further, since it had been the most durable and solid coating on the market for more than a decade.” Joachim Stein, director of HORT Coating Center AG and responsible for the development and production of Swiss Diamond products agrees: “Even we were surprised how much the non-stick qualities improved with the new HD coating.”


“We prefer to keep our focus on the technology and actual cooking qualities of our products because - in the end - that‘s the most important factor for our sophisticated customers,” explains Joachim Stein.
